Definitions
- the invention relates to high voltage power cable for ultra deep waters applications.
- Ultra deep waters can be considered as being at least 3000 meters under the sea level. At such depths, deep waters applications will induce large tensile strain on the cable.
- the weak element in high voltage power cable application is the metallic conductors, generally consisted of copper, due to their poor mechanical properties, and especially due to their poor elongation capacity. During installation and service, the high voltage power cable will be exposed to large tensile forces and dynamic motion which will induce fatigue problems. The metallic conductors, especially when they are made of copper material, will be damaged when they are exposed to an elongation above a critical limit.
- EP 1691378 discloses an electrical signal cable, comprising at least two insulated conductors, and of which the main technical feature is that each of the insulated conductors is arranged in a groove of a longitudinal central element consisting of an elastic material which allows the insulated conductors to move in radial direction of the said cable when the latter is exposed to longitudinal tensile stress.
- the cable is surrounded by a sheath of insulated material, and the elastic material fills entirely the space inside the said sheath so that it is in contact with this sheath along its circumference, except the areas corresponding to the grooves.
- the high voltage power cables according to the invention are designed to increase the elongation capacity of the metallic insulated conductors without the two drawbacks mentioned before. This way, they are well adapted to ultra deep waters applications by improving their resistance to very high pressure without damaging the said insulated metallic conductors.
- a high voltage power cable is provided as defined in claim 1. Further developments of the invention are the subject of the dependent claims.
- the invention relates to high voltage power cable comprising at least two insulated conductors and an armour package surrounding the said conductors.
- the main feature of the high voltage power cable according to the invention is that it comprises a longitudinal central element consisting of an elastomer material, and longitudinal elements placed between the said insulated conductors and consisting of polymer material.
- the central elastic element will function as soft bedding for the insulated conductors and will allow the said conductors to move towards centre due to radial forces applied from the armour package and axial tensile load in the insulated conductors themselves.
- the polymer elements placed between the insulated conductors will transfer the radial forces from the armour package on a large area and due to this the said insulated conductors themselves will not be deformed significantly.
- These polymers elements constitute supplementary passageways to transfer load from the armour package towards central elastic element, and hence relieve the strain on the insulated conductors.
- the combination of a central elastic element and polymer elements placed between the insulated conductors allow the insulated conductors to move towards centre due to radial forces transferred by armour package and axial tensile load. This move towards centre induces the reduction of the pitch diameter of the insulated conductors, and an access length will be obtained. This will relieve the strain on the insulated conductors.
- the said cable comprises three power phases, each being in contact with the central elastic element and with two polymer elements.
- Power phase comprises a copper conductor surrounded by insulation system which consists of an inner semiconductive sheath, cross linked polyethylene insulation, an outer semi conductive sheath protected by an outer polyethylene sheath.
- insulation system which consists of an inner semiconductive sheath, cross linked polyethylene insulation, an outer semi conductive sheath protected by an outer polyethylene sheath.
- the copper conductors constitute the weak elements in the cable due to their poor mechanical properties.
- a device based on a central elastic element and polymer elements between power phases is well adapted to the safeguard of the cable.
- the said cable comprises an assembly consisting of an inner polymer sheath, an outer polymer sheath, and an armour package placed between the said sheaths, the said assembly surrounding the insulated conductors, the polymer elements being in contact with the said inner sheath.
- the inner and the outer sheaths consist of polyethylene.
- the central elastic element, the polymer elements and the insulated conductors are arranged together so that two consecutive insulated conductors are separated with a free space.
- each insulated conductor is able to move easily, rapidly and independently one from the other toward centre when exposed to radial forces.
- these free spaces constitute also expending spaces for the central elastic element when insulated conductors move towards centre and deform the said elastic element.
- the transversal cross section of the longitudinal central elastic element is approximately triangular, each of the insulated conductors being in contact with one side of the said cross section.
- the central elastic element consists of elastomer.
- the central elastic element consists of Ethylene-Propylene-Diene-Monomer (EPDM) elastomer.
- the central elastic element consists of natural or synthetic rubber.
- the armour package comprises steel wires. But it may also contain composite materials consisting of aramid fiber, carbon fiber or similar. More specifically, armour package contains at least two layers.
- the armour package which is the load bearing element is applied with a lay-angle less than the lay-angel in the centre bundle of the three power phases, the lay-angle in centre bundle and armour package being controlled by one another.
- a high voltage power cable according to the invention comprises a simple device resulting from the combination of a central elastic element and polymer elements between insulated conductors, the said device being easy to manufacture and to implement. Moreover, this device is well adapted to high voltage power cables intended to be used in ultra deep waters, because it remains very efficient without taking too much place. Finally, since the different materials implemented in this device are polymer and elastomer, the high voltage power cables according to the invention are not expensive.
- a high voltage power cable 1 comprises three insulated conductors 2 also called “power phases", three polymer elements 3 placed between power phases 2, a longitudinal central element 4 consisting of elastic material, all the elements 2,3,4 being surrounded by an assembly 5 including an armour package 6.
- the longitudinal central element 4 consists of an elastomer such as EPDM, and has a triangular cross section.
- a power phase 2 comprises a copper conductor 7 surrounded by an insulation system consisting of an inner semi conductive sheath 20, cross linked polyethylene insulation 8, an outer semi conductive sheath 9 protected by an outer protective polyethylene sheath 10.
- the assembly 5 including the armour package 6 comprises an inner sheath 11 consisting of polyethylene, an outer sheath 12 consisting of polyethylene and the armour package 6 placed between the said sheaths 11, 12, the said assembly 5 surrounding power phases 2, polymer elements 3 and the central elastic element 4.
- the armour package 6 consists of two superposed layers of steel wires 14.
- the insulated conductors 2, the polymer elements 3 and the central elastic element 4 are arranged together so that one polymer element 3 is in contact with the inner polyethylene sheath 11and with two insulated conductors 2, and so that one insulated conductor 2 is in contact with one side of the triangular cross section of the central elastic element 4. With such an arrangement two consecutive insulated conductors 2 are separated with a free space 15.
- the presence of polymer elements 3 and central elastic element 4, makes possible that the insulated copper conductors 2 move easily towards centre of the cable 1. From the initial position 17 of the copper conductors 2 into the cable 1 without any axial tension, to their final position 18 into the said cable 1 after moving towards center when exposed to axial tension, the pitch diameter decreases from an initial value 17a to a final value 18a, whereas the length of the said copper conductors 2 increases from an initial value 17b to a final value 18b.
- the armour package 6 will also elongate in axial direction due to radial displacement. This armour package 6 which is the load bearing element will be applied with a lay-angle less than the lay-angel in the centre bundle of the three power phases 2. The lay-angle in centre bundle and armour package 6 is controlled by one another. In an optimized cable 1 there will be low tension in the power phases 2 due to the access length 18b induced by the change in pitch diameter 18a.
- the elastomeric central element 4 and polymer elements 3 in the centre bundle and optimized lay angels between the power phases 2 and armour package 6 makes the high voltage power cable 1 fit for purpose in water depths greater than 3000m.
